The Beautiful Ones

There just aren't any beautiful women left. Or at least, not in my spectrum. Sure, there's pretty ones, but none of the truly beautiful. Beauty isn't just your looks, it's the way you hold yourself, the way you talk. Those women are of a different time. I find myself constantly inspired by them. You all already know of my obsession with Marilyn. I think that era was a golden time. Women like Marilyn and Audrey brought the world class. You could be sexy, but it was going to be the most classy sexy ever. They perfected the art of "leaving it to the imagination". And so, today, I bring you on a time trip. I collected images of "moments". These weren't photo shoots, these were the bloopers. Enjoy...

Louise Brooks, Silent Film Star, and the original "Dangerous one".

Audrey Hepburn on the set of Sabrina, 1954. That woman could make putting on lipstick an ART.

Brigette Bardot. Really, nothing needs to be said about her. You get it.

Marylin Monroe. This picture is so gorgeous. Her pants alone are fab. This is probably THE original "Picture of a girl taking a picture" picture.

Ok, so MAYBE this one was posed a teensy-tiny bit. But that's ok.

Marlene Dietrich. She who famously said "If there is a supreme being, he's crazy." She also was the only one who could ever really pull off a pantsuit.

Our American princess, Princess Grace Kelly Of Monaco. She really had it down. And that bathing suit..

Grace and Audrey at the Oscars.

Marilyn again. Because I'M in charge, and I can obsess over her at will.

And finally, what is quite possibly the best perfume ad ever. Recognize anyone?

Legalish bits.

If you steal something off my blog, well, lets just put it like this: I will track you down and force you to clear a path to the back of my closet. No one will ever see you again.

I mean it.

All the photos on this blog, unless taken by me, are linked to the site I found them on. If I used your picture, and you want me to take it down, just tell me.

Things You Should Know

*If something has been gifted to me by a brand, or magically appeared in my closet, I'll point it out by the usage of an asterisk (*) or bold lettering.

* I made a promise to never tell you I love something on this blog that I haven't held in my hand and obsessed myself, and I won't.

*I scour the websites of any brands I work with to make sure I'm cool with you, my beloved reader, possibly wandering their pages. This is very important to me, and if you come across something you think I may have missed + probably isn't something I'd love, email me at justina@abentpieceofwire.com and let me know.
